The FBI Is Being Rewritten in Real Time

The agency that once called white nationalism America’s top terror threat is now cutting ties with the groups that tracked it — and elevating MAGA voices instead.

The Truth Will Come Out

Elon Musk said Donald Trump was in the Epstein files. Then he deleted it. But not before we saved it.

Puerto Rico Is America. Deal With It.

Bad Bunny isn’t the problem — MAGA racism is. Puerto Ricans are U.S. citizens, and it’s time the right stopped pretending otherwise.

I Tried to Illustrate a News Story — and Hit a Wall Called Sam Altman

The Church Ladies of Sinclair Broadcasting

For years they denied it — now the most powerful right-wing broadcaster in America is openly dictating who you’re allowed to watch.

I’ve called Sinclair the most dangerous broadcaster in America for a decade. Now its Christian-right leadership is deciding what you’re allowed to watch. The Smith family wants to be your Church Lady. #FreeSpeechUnderAttack #SinclairBroadcastGroup #DontBeSinclair

The bubble burst. I kept growing.

After a life in politics and newsrooms, I’ve learned this much: history honors the ones who stood up.

I spent years covering Ohio Gov Mike DeWine and his relentless efforts to block marriage equality. Now, he’s targeting the rights of trans people. He has consistently shown a pattern of marginalizing minority groups, and history won’t judge him kindly.

Hey Joe Rogan, instead of spending your days scared of a potential world war, why not highlight the courage of Ukrainians who are actually fighting for their country?

Probably. But I think he’s going to anyway so that’s why I’m hoping at least Cuban will fight.
